Screenwriter Graham Moore and author Andrew Hodges received the 27th-annual USC Libraries Scripter Award for “The Imitation Game.”

Selection committee chair Howard Rodman announced the winners at the black-tie event on Saturday at USC’s Doheny Memorial Library.

“The Imitation Game’s” Scripter win adds to the accolades for the Weinstein Co. film, which has been nominated for eight Academy Awards and eight BAFTAs.

Moore based his adaptation on “Alan Turing: The Enigma,” a 1983 biography by Hodges of the British World War II code-breaker and computer pioneer who was later persecuted for his homosexuality.

Rodman accepted the award on behalf of Hodges, who teaches mathematics at Oxford University’s Wadham College.

Chaired by USC screenwriting professor and vice president of the Writers Guild of America, West, Howard Rodman, the Scripter selection committee chose “The Imitation Game” from a field of 97 eligible films.
